. This print captures a significant moment in history when an economic downturn gripped Great Britain following the Napoleonic Wars, leading to a mass exodus of hopeful individuals seeking new opportunities in Canada during the 1830s. The intricate pen-and-ink drawing by Charles W. Jefferys beautifully portrays this poignant chapter.
